Nice atmosphere

Pros: Nice staff , rooms and bathrooms are ok with everything you need , nice atmosphere for solo travel and not.

Rachel 9/10

Ireland 🇮🇪

Pros: Great staff, clean place, and a location close to most transportation in Faro.

Cons: Obviously this is a property rating, not a self-centered people diagnosis, but one noisy girl keeping doors open at 1, 3, and 6 a.m. (despite staff telling her to stop!). She brings full package of noise and light, really ruined the impression of the place. Tried being nice, got louder. Other than that, perfect.

The best

Pros: Incredibly welcoming space. Everyone incredibly welcoming, you could tell it was a very tight family feeling culture as soon as you walked in.

Built with travelers in mind

Pros: Easily one of the best hostels I've ever stayed in - clearly built with travelers in mind. Every detail is well thought out - spacious comfy beds (with privacy curtains), separate bathrooms, clean and cosy spaces, lovely people working there, and the perfect mix of chill and social. I'll definitely be coming back — and recommending it to everyone!

Cons: That I didn't book more days :) Nothing to complain about!

Magical atmosphere in this place, they had really thought of everything for the perfect solo experie

Pros: Amazing hostel, super friendly staff nothing was too much trouble for any of them. Night shift guy was awesome and Natalia too. The hostel had thought of everything to man it a brilliant community environment for solo travellers without it being too pushy, could easily come and go doing your solo thing if that’s what you prefer. Great location in Faro to walk down to the shops/ restaurants and boat jetty

Cons: Nothing really, lovely clean bathrooms. Roof terrace was nice
